I also have to laugh at "final approach." While not about fighters, it fits into the kids-are-better-pilots-than-adults genre: A plane gets hijacked, and of course the passengers all trust the 10 year old kid to land the plane - but its okay because he's an EXPERT on his computer game. ....right....
That reminds me of Aeroflot 593--pilot let his 15 year old kid into the cockpit and take the controls, no surprise, the plane crashed after the kid overrode the autopilot and well....

| My favorite ones are the P-51 Mustang fights. The pilots got pretty creative in the moves they pulled, using things like the natural torque of the engine. pretty ballsy when you see it in CGI.... |

| Basically, when it comes to aviation DVDs, avoid anything starring Lou Gossett Jr. |

Anything taken at an airshow, I have some of the the International Air Tatoo videos and DVDs. Also checkout the stuff from Farnborough.
The IAT is Europes biggest military airshow and we've had everything from a Russian Bear to the B2.
